Notes
How To Store
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for 60 seconds or in the oven at 300F for 10 minutes. Add toppings fresh when serving.Top Tips
- Use spotty bananas. Extra ripe bananas give a softer, smoother texture and more natural sweetness.
- Do not overmix. Stir until just combined. Overmixing affects the soft, cake-like texture.
- Add a drizzle before serving. A little extra maple syrup or almond butter on top takes it to another level.
